django - TypeError: __init__() got multiple values for keyword argument 'add_config_file_help'

Question

I'm trying to run Retrieval-eval.py, but I am encountering the following error:

 TypeError: __init__() got multiple values for keyword argument 'add_config_file_help'                                     

I'm using get_sim_score() method to compute similarity score from another directory while going through that method it goes to argparser.py here i got this error showed above. This is my argparser.py here in class NeonArgparser() im encountering that error. Can anyone help me with this error?

**class NeonArgparser(configargparse.ArgumentParser):**
    """

    arguments in sys.arg (or from configuration file).  Use the parsed
    options to configure the logging module.*emphasized text*

    """
    def __init__(self, *args, **kwargs):
        self._PARSED = False
        self.work_dir = os.path.join(os.path.expanduser('~'), 'nervana')
        if 'default_config_files' not in kwargs:
            kwargs['default_config_files'] = [os.path.join(self.work_dir,
                                                           'neon.cfg')]
        if 'add_config_file_help' not in kwargs:
            # turn off the auto-generated config help for config files since it
            # referenced unsettable config options like --version
            kwargs['add_config_file_help'] = False

        self.defaults = kwargs.pop('default_overrides', dict())
        super(NeonArgparser, self).__init__(*args, **kwargs)

        # ensure that default values are display via --help
        self.formatter_class = configargparse.ArgumentDefaultsHelpFormatter

        self.setup_default_args()

Here is the exception trace, Please have a look.

This is mainly due to a bug in latest version of ConfigArgParse. For now to get you unblocked please install some version other than latest by running this command:

pip install --no-cache-dir ConfigArgParse>=0.10.0,<0.13.0

If you are running from within a shell you may want to escape some chars:

pip install --no-cache-dir ConfigArgParse>=0.10.0,<0.13.0

and now you should be able to run the example: `
